Description
Multiple cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerabilities in Collabtive 0.4.8 allow remote attackers to hijack the authentication of administrators for requests that (1) submit or edit a new project, or (2) upload files to a project, or (3) attach files to messages via unknown vectors. NOTE: these issues can be leveraged with other vulnerabilities to create remote attack vectors that do not require authentication.
Public exploits
Exploit or proof-of-concept code for this vulnerability is publicly available, which lowers the bar for attackers. Treat it as a reason to patch sooner.
Third-party code, not reviewed by us. Public PoCs are sometimes fake or contain malware. Read the code first and run it only in an isolated lab, against systems you are authorised to test.
